Unretouched scan of a negative from my first test roll in a Leica M2 discovered among source material while digitizing photos for the Floyd R. Whitmore Public Domain Photo Archive. I am donating this photo to the public domain in keeping with the spirit of that archive project. This photo was taken near Atlanta, GA in April, 2024.

Lydia Gleeson Warrington, 1899-1988

For the Christmas Day, I decided to do a second film with my Contax F during a photo walk at Parc de la Tête d'Or, Lyon, France.

 

The Contax F was equipped of the Carl Zeiss Jean Tessar normal lens 2.8/50 with an aluminum 42mm push-on FOCA (France) shade hood with filter indicated bellow. The camera was loaded with a film Rollei Retro 400S (former aerial Agfa Aviphot 400) a super-panchromatic black-and-white film sensitized to 760nm in the near infra-red. The emulsion is coated on a clear PET film leading usually to high-contrast negative views. The film is quite adapted to low-light or misty weather. Exposures were determined using a Minolta Autometer III Minolta light meter (400 ISO normally and 125 ISO with the FOCA DYMA filter x3.5) fitted with a 10° finder for selective measurements privileging the shadow areas. The outdoor views were done at 1/200s or 1/100s typically at f/8. Indoor, I used the 1/50s from the full aperture f/2.8 ti about f/4.

After completion, the film was revealed using Adox Adonal developper at dilution 1+25at 20°C for 10min30 The film was then digitized using a Sony A7 body fitted to a Minolta Slide Duplicator installed on a Minolta Auto Bellows III with a lens Minolta Bellow Macro Rokkor 50mm f/3.5. The RAW files obtained were processed without intermediate files in LR and edited to the final jpeg pictures.

 

All views of the film are presented in the dedicated album either in the printed framed versions and unframed full-size jpeg. For this second film, no problems were noticed from the views with the shutter operation. I reinforced the light seals near the back locker where a suspicious small possible leak was noticed on the first test film. The leak is now highly reduced or absent now.

About the camera and its normal lens:

 

The VEB Pentacon Dresden company was the name chosen in the 50's for the suite of Zeiss Ikon Dresden after the WWII in the former Deutsche Demokratische Republik (DDR).

 

Looking for a matching Carl Zeiss Jena Tessar lens for my Pentacon (Contax D), I found for the same low price a combo with later Contax F (1957) in working condition. The camera has the Ernemann tower logo but is branded "Contax". The Contax F is a small improvement of previous "Spiegel Contax" including a Fresnel lens to improve the viewing screen plus a system to automatically close the iris by pressing the shutter release. Both Zeiss Ikon and Contax brands were contested to the Zeiss branch on the other side of the west-east internal German border.

 

To avoid legal problems for exportation, Zeiss Ikon Dresden deposited two new possible trade marks resulting from the contraction of the words "Pentaprism" + "Contax" giving "Pentacon" and "Pentax". The name of Pentax was sold to Asahi Opticals in 1956 and the SLR Contax continued its distribution either under the name "Contax" for the internal East market, and "Pentacon" for export.

 

A new logo symbolizing the Ernemann tower of the Dresden Zeiss Ikon factory. For a time the "ZI" initials were included in the logo before disappearing later.

 

The M42 lens, branded "Carl Zeiss Jena", is a mid 50's Tessar 1:2.8 f=50mm, is in perfect mechanical and optical conditions. The lens could fit 42mm push-on or 40.5mm screw-on filters and shade hoods.
